Former Liverpool defender Evie Smith is hoping to help Blackburn Rovers to a famous victory when they take on Liverpool in the Continental Cup this weekend.
The Reds currently sit top of their group, having picked up wins against Sunderland and Leicester City, while Blackburn haven't picked up a point in their cup campaign so far. Gemma Donnelly's side play in the Women's Championship - one division below Liverpool - and were handed a bruising 6-0 defeat when the two teams last met in January this year.
However, Smith is confident her side can go toe-to-toe with their hosts when they travel to Prenton Park on Sunday, following a five-game unbeaten run in the league. Smith, who signed for Blackburn in the summer after eight years on Merseyside, has revealed her allegiances are firmly with her new club.
